There's also a controller that was released in the US that is half Indigo, half clear. Also, I think you should remove the Animal Crossing memory card from the list; it is in no way a special edition. It just happens to be a 59 block grey card, with a preapplied Animal Crossing label. The card comes preloaded with two NES games for use in your house upon starting a new game.
Don't give up, keep looking on yahoo you will eventually get lucky on a cheap ff cc cube i found mine for £150 but it was missing the box & the plastic covers that go on the bottom of the cube. Luckily one of the spaces is filled with the gb player & another with the bb adapter so i just need to find a spare cover & some pearlescent white paint for the last cover (^_^) Oh & its guarded buy a multitude of security devices ingluding a army of zelda figures hehe.
@Rabid Peanut-Butter - I can't beleive i forgot the Microphone >_<!!! I shall add it in a moment I need to go to my other pc to add, as i have it all in a txt file (vBulletin tends to screw posts with bullet points up if you edit) ill edit the txt file, then repost @The_Steadster - Is the Chainsaw official nintendo stuff? And ill add the Wavebird Emerald . @GreatSaintLouis - I put that purple/clear one down as "Clear purple" on the original list, cos thats what it was named on Liksang (i think thats where i saw it). Regarding the AC card... I dunno which way to go with it, so ill grey it, and make Grey the "???" stuff @ImportOtaku - I hope I can find one, otherwise I will have to brave the Zelda figures!! Although i fear I may be no match for them ;_; On a side note, Im off to the land of the rising sun for a month in August, so hopefully I can track down some of the special stuff that was only released over there . I'll leave with one suitcase, and come back with like 5 haha.
Its not official nintendo, but i think its fully licensed - I'd count it Not actually certain if the emerald wavebird exists - perhaps it was just a figment of my imagination......
The present is on the card, as the package states...Why would it be in the game? What special present are you talking about (the nes game)? I don't believe I have heard of it before, but there are a lot of hidden/special things in that game. I'm very interested to know if it is something new.

Surely you have the normal composite video cable - you know, the one that comes with the GCs? You really should get the proper SCART cable though - it's sooo much better! The official one's pretty hard to find though - it's only available by "special order" on Amazon.co.uk. There's also an official s-video cable, and there's RF adaptors - but it'll be pain collecting them! There must be at least 4 RF adaptor variants - PAL-I (British Isles and South Africa), PAL-G (rest of Western Europe, except France), NTSC-M (N. America), PAL-M (Brazil and other countries around there), and possibly some others. There is also an official composite video + mono audio cable, probably only available in Japan:
Ok, updated the list again Thanks again for everyone posting, so much stuff that I missed . @The_Steadster - I've added the RE4 and Emerald Wavebird, I'll look into the Emerald to se if it was just your imagination hehe I just realised there is a section that I have missed out... Prototype hardware... now I realise that this stuff will be very difficult to get.. but it can't be impossible as i've seen a picture of a prototype pad on these forums... What prototype hardware is out there? I think its great that with everyones help a full list of Gamecube hardware can be compiled.. see this is what forums are about, so few these days have this sort of community that is willing to help each other out... I must say that you are all fantastic folk, and I'm really glad I found this forum
Theres about 5 or 6 proto pads floating around - a quick search brings this up: http://www.assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2678&highlight=proto+pads
Do those packs have anything special about the actual cube? I was under the impression they just contain standard cubes, but also have a game included? - if so collecting them is not really what I'm after, cos its differences in hardware that I want. But thank you for pointing them out For example, the RES4 cube is two tone and has res4 on the top and on the pad.
@Subbie - why must you rain on my parade ;_;.... But seriously, the DEV hardware is at the bottom of the list, and isn't "essential" it would just be nice to have them too to fully complete the set Heh, sorry. not trying to destroy you hopes. Just informing. Hey do you want special bundles as well? As mention there was a special bundle for Metroid Prime. The system is a standard platnum cube with metroid & metroid 2 demo shoved in and a special thing that went over the cube box to say it was a bundle.
Got a feeling a few of them come with a different top cover thing (other than the normal "nintendo Gamecube" one)
Actually, I've seen some of the newer Gamecubes where you can't anymore. They were some of the ones that are missing the digital out... not sure if all of the new ones have solid tops now.
Erm, you've got "Gamecube to GBA Connector" and "Nintendo Digital Video Cable" in there twice now for some reason. And as I said, you must have at least 11 stereo composite AV cables now! You also forgot the S-video cable - there's an official one available in Japan at least. By "Digital Video Cable", do you mean the Japanese D-terminal one, like this? And it's "RGB" not "RBG" ^_^ I'm not sure if there's a PAL-M RF modulator, but there probably is. Anyone from Brazil know? Then again all these except the PAL-I ones will be totally useless to you - unless you like playing games with no sound or no colour! There's also possibly different types of modems for different regions - or are they all the same? Also, are the AC adaptors the same worldwide? Sorry, I only know about the boring stuff! ^_^
Yeah, I contacted Nintendo about that for my older brother. It seems less than one-percent of all Gamecube users actually use the Digital Out. Here is the original message: It may interest you to know that all newly-manufactured models of the Nintendo GameCube system no longer feature the digital A/V out port (where the component video cable connected) and the nameplate on top of the system is no longer be detachable. We opted to remove the digital A/V out port from the system because we found that less than one percent of all Nintendo GameCube players used this feature. As for the name plate, there isn't a purpose to removing this part from the system, so this part will no longer be removable on future Nintendo GameCube consoles. Some people have been concerned that we will stop supporting progressive scan in our games because of this change. About one-third of licensee titles and over 90% of first-party titles currently have the progressive scan feature. We expect that most Nintendo first-party titles will continue to support progressive scan. Each licensee will continue to make the decision of whether or not to include this feature in their future games. Sincerely, Nintendo of America Inc. Mitch Crim
Is this the same for models outside the US? The D-terminal cable seems to be relatively popular in Japan, and HDTV sets are a lot more common over there too.
